Gaamatu Tha cider of a triangle are in the ratio 3:4:5. What is the la

Answer 1

Explanation:

Rectangle:

Ratio = 3:2

Let length = 3x

Width = 2x

Perimeter = 55 cm

2*(length + width) = 55

2*(3x +2x) = 55

2*5x = 55

10x = 55

x = 55/10

x = 5.5cm

Length = 3x = 3*5.5 = 16.5 cm

Width = 2x = 2*5.5 = 11.0 = 11 cm
